EMMA ABBOTT.
The Bohemian GiEi-A Greas
Change Of Bill.

The rendition Of Balfe's charming sen.
timental opera, "The Bohemian Girl,
at the Grand last night by the Emma
Abbott Company was most decided
SUCCESS. The opera is among both the
most charmingly picturesque in setting
and costuming, and the most brilliantly
tuneful in score extant. 1t sparkles
with gems of song of the purest water.
The costuming and setting last night
were in excellent style, and in tout
ensemble it went with vervs, vim and
dash, that carried the great audience
completely away in enthusiasm. Stand
ing room only was the order of the oc.
casion, and there was very little of that
to spare when the curtain rose.
Emma Abbott sang aud acted the
"Arline" as she does all she attempts,
to the acme of perfection. Her vocaliza.

In the trio
From the rocks and the mountains come

And wherever she appeared was brill.
liant az diamonds. 1t was also sympa-
thetio as if she were in very truth the
heroine of Balfss creation. Miss Alb
bott introduced, to the delight OF all
who heard it, the bird d.song from DAvids
"Pearl of Brazil" This Is one of the
sweetest songs composed, and is in
every note most difficult Of execution.
1t is full of phrases, hardest to express.
But the charming cantatrice took each
note, and made each run with the pre-.
ciston of an instrument, and q sweet.
ness and expression of sounds whose
source could be found nowhere else but
ia a woman's heart. While her singing
is so marvelously correct in execution, It
is also most gracefully easy, and brim
full Of warm feeling. She sings from
her heart.
The "Thaddeus" was sung in good
style by Michelena, and the "Arnh elm"
by Pruette. The latter is still disabled
by o terrible cold, which somewhat i'm
paired his singing. The "Gypsy Queen"
was sung excellently by Lizzie An.
nandale. The lady is also in.
disposed, but 80 manfully does she
battle with this disability that it is not
noticed before the footlights.
In Difference to the most enthusiastic
recognition accorded her in this city,
Emma Abbott will give great double
bill at each performance alter tonight.
Gounod's immortal opera 'Faust" will
be pre- e,ented tonight, and the large ad-
vance sale Of seats indicates another
brilliant audience. Emma Abbott has
gained great renown as Margherita, and
will be ably supported by q splendid
cast, as follows:

THE LEGIsLATURE.
SENATE.

SACRAMENTO, January 5.-The Senate
met at 2 O'Clock for the purpose of ef.
fecting permanent organization. s.
NJ. White, of Los Angeles, was elected
President pro tenn. by party vote, and
Edward q. Hamilton, of Alameda, was
chosen Secretary by the same vote. Tho
organization was completed by the cleo.
tion of the Democratic caucus nominees
for all Of the minor offices.
BoRgs offered resolution to appoint
. committee of three to notify the Gov
ernor that tho Senate is organized, when
Crandall raised the point that, under the
rules, all committees must be appointed
BY the Senate. President Daggett ruled
the point well taken, and White moved
to name Boggs, Haynes and Dray as
such committee. The motion was car.
ried.
On motion of Goucher, Senators Lang
ford, Jones and Vrooman were appoint
ed Committee on Rules.
Gesford offered resolution appointing
Hayden c. Christian as Chaplain of the
Senate. Adopted.
A debate occurred over the question
whether or not the Lieutenant.G Governor
has power, under the law, to appoint the
porters and pages of the Senate.
Clunie declared that the Democrats
proposed to permit the Lieutenant Gov
ernor to appoint three porters and three
pages, the number allowed by law, but
that they intended to elect the extra
porters and pages themselves. He held
that the constitution conferred the right
to appoint all of it's officers on the
Senate but the majority had courteously
given the Lieutenant-G Governor his privi-
Ieges under an invalid law.
A long debate followed. and the chair
then ruled that under the law as he
read it the Senate has power to create
porters and pages, but when created
they must be appointed by the Presi.
dent.
Caminetti appealed from this decision
and another long argument followed be.
tween Vrooman and White. On the
roll call the decision of the chair was
reversed and, Vrooman moving to recon.

WEALTHY ALL AT ONCEa
An Irish Laborer Finds Nearly 81 900 in an
Old Building.


Pittsburg Dispatch.
A curious find was ade public to-day in con-
nection with the demolition of lot of ancient
frame shanties Thompson street. One day
last week poor Irish laborer was prying away
a portion of the ceiling, when he discovered a
paper parcel concealed between the rafters
which supported the floor above. Upon opening
it he discovered nineteen iftydollar bills of the
issue of Nov 10, 1868. He kept his find secret
for few days, but when complete set of coun-
terfeiters tools were subsequently discovered in
the same building it occurred to him that the
bills in his possession might not be good ones
He set about making inquiries, and in this way
his secret came out From bank to bank he
went, and in each case the answer he received
was that the bills were perfectly good.
Finally, this morning, he showed one of them
to Mr.. Pelton, the owner of the building. asking
for his opinion. Mr.. Pelton replied that he
thought the bill was good one, and furthe rmore
advised the man to divide a portion of the money
among his fellow-laborers. The man replied
that he had already determined to give his COM
rades 800 of his find. He seemed dazed at his
singular good look and said that for over fifty
years he had been working hard, but had not
succeeded in all that time in saving half the
amount that one stroke of fortune had now
placed within his grasp Old residents remem-
Der a mysterious man named Weber, who lived
